Shocking details emerge in Rohit Shetty firing case…
Mumbai | Mumbai Crime Branch has made a major breakthrough in the firing incident outside Bollywood filmmaker Rohit Shetty’s residence in Juhu. Investigators have revealed that the attack was allegedly orchestrated by Shubham Lonkar, the Maharashtra head of the Bishnoi gang, along with his brother Pravin Lonkar.
Notably, Pravin Lonkar is currently lodged in jail in connection with the Baba Siddique murder case. Despite being behind bars, he is suspected of arranging weapons and financial support for the attack on Rohit Shetty.
Crime Branch officials believe Pravin Lonkar coordinated the criminal network from inside prison. According to police, 12 accused — including the main shooter — have been arrested so far from Pune, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh. Pravin Lonkar remains in judicial custody and is expected to be formally taken into police custody in connection with this case soon.
Police said the motorcycle, firearm, and funds used in the attack were provided under Pravin Lonkar’s instructions. Investigators are now trying to determine how he managed to operate the conspiracy from jail, who he was in contact with and what communication channels were used to pass instructions.
A senior police officer stated that 12 Crime Branch teams are currently working on the case. Authorities believe that once Pravin Lonkar is taken into custody, more details about the conspiracy and the Bishnoi gang’s future plans may come to light.
